Toughness, movement, defense, hustle, winning 50/50 balls…wow what a start to the season! Great job boys and keep it up! So fun to watch.
What a joy to watch this basketball team!

I barely recognize what I'm watching out there compared to last year.
That was 40 minutes of some of the best team basketball I've seen out of an ISU team for quite some time. As for the defensive effort, I can not think of a game when there's been a better 40 minute effort. Unbelievable.
We've got a TEAM!!!

I am impressed by the all out hustle-offense and defense. That is fun to watch and it appears the players are having fun. Quite the improvement.
Sorry Steve, but this commercial so reminded me of last season...

Purchased ESPN+ so I could watch the TJ Otz Clones play this season. It is a pleasure to watch these guys play hard, gritty team basketball.
I was so excited watching this Xavier matchup. So much so I was on my feet the majority of the game doing the flossing Fortnite dance. I’m a 30 year old man.
I honestly think lack of all of the above was the reason for 90% of what was wrong with the Prohm teams.
Did Prohm coach at all besides recruiting?
Agreed. Win or lose this is a beyond watchable brand of basketball. As their shots fall it’ll only get better. Besides the fundamentals of ball movement, defense and rebounding, I could swear I saw some “refuse ta lose” in the attitude on the floor against Xavier.
Stick with this program fellas and win or lose you’ll have a guaranteed large and relentless following. This style of play is college hoops at its finest!!

Is that a positive or negative statement?
While I completely agree, the season is long and the team is thin. I just wonder what wear and tear the players will take before the meat of the schedule hits. But, I love the hustle.
I apologize for coming off as an A#$h01e, but I've never understood why people live so much in the past. Especially, if it's only negative. It's water under the bridge. The only thing people should truly worry about is what's in front of you. Not what's behind you. Because that's the ONLY thing you can control.
I agree, I think there’s a fall off between the first and second units, esp offensively. That being said, It’s night and day between watching this team and the teams of the last couple (few) years. We’re now seeing a team that is well coached and well prepared.
